I don't know how to describe my sense of humor.

Rugrats was my favorite cartoon growing up as a kid.

I'm weirdly flexible, so when I dance, I dance like a 17-year-old girl.

I love dancing, actually. My mother taught children's dance, ballet, tap, jazz...I'm very flexible.

I kind of strive for being able to go home and having a totally separate life.

I would like to think there is a reason and a choice behind everything.

You've got to stop going back and forth. You've got to make up your mind.

I think the movies that don't try to please people are movies that you respect more in the end.

The moment that you start to read a script, you're watching the movie in your mind, and that's the one moment that you have. Then, you go off to make the movie and you become so lost in it.

I grew up in dance studios. I was forced to be in several numbers in recitals and dance competitions. I took one tap class - literally one class - and then I quit.

I never really want to repeat myself, obviously, but even if I do, it's because it is a choice.

They were making a riotous noise, but it was much more like music - rather advanced music which you don't quite take in at the first hearing - than birds' songs ever are in our world.

White magic or black, it doesn’t make a difference. Natural and artificial? Obsolete distinctions

The further from law you move, the closer to claw you come.

My father used to sing to me in my mother's womb. I think I can name about any tune in two beats.

For most men, life is a search for the proper Manila envelope in which to get themselves filed.

Outside the arch, always there seemed another arch. And beyond the remotest echo, a silence.

Wine is bottled poetry, he thinks.

The one thing you can do that the audience can't do - all those smart people online in the chat rooms can't do - is deliver a satisfying emotional journey for a human being, for a character.

We all make mistakes. It's human. Just learn from them. Repeating them and being aware of it is the dangerous bit.

To meditate is to observe yourself, for you are totally responsible for your body, mind, thought.
